Georgia Income Taxes and GA State Tax

Prepare and e-file your 2024 year Georgia state tax return - resident, nonresident, or part-year resident returns - together with your IRS return now via eFile.com.

Keep in mind, the IRS and the GA state tax agencies require you to e-file a federal income tax return at the same time you e-file your Georgia state tax return. This is not an eFile.com policy but an IRS and state agency policy. See detailed instructions on how you can only prepare and mail in - not eFile - an Georgia Tax Return- here via eFile.com.
GA taxes are generally due when the IRS return is due, thus you should e-file them together to avoid any late penalties. This way, you do not need to worry about mailing anything.
